Geo, you have to give us more than that. From my sources things are very high stressed and at a make or break point, not positive, not necessarily negative, but in the end game now.
Basically my understanding is looking for a TO and the bargaining chip is "give us an adequate $$$ or we will continue these court cases" (they definitely do not want to battle court for all these years).
The only positive is if you've heard further rumours of a good TO bid?
Quick question, didn't you say your source was a former employee? How former?
